Without limitation, this contract includes indemnities to the Sponsor, defined herein, from you, a limitation of your rights and remedies, binding arbitration of claims, waiver of class action claims and waiver to the right to trial by jury.  

 To enter these Sweepstakes, you must have Internet access and a valid Twitter account. This game is in no way sponsored, endorsed or administered by, or associated with, Twitter Inc.    1. TIMING: The T-Mobile #5Gsfor5G Sweepstakes (the “Promotion) begins on January  18, 2021, at 10 a.m. Pacific Time (“PT”)) and ends on December 31, 2021, at 3 p.m. PT, or after the final drawing has occurred, whichever occurs first (the “Promotion Period”). Sponsor’s clock will be the official timekeeping device for the Promotion. 2. ELIGIBILITY: The sponsor of this Promotion is T-Mobile USA, Inc. (“Sponsor”), 12920 SE 38th Street, Bellevue, WA and the prize partner is Prize Logic LLC, 25200 Telegraph Road, Suite 405, Southfield, MI 48033 (“Prize Partner”). The Promotion is open to legal residents residing in the fifty (50) United States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands who are the age of majority in the entrant’s jurisdiction as of date of entry. Void where prohibited. Employees, officers or directors of Sponsor and Prize Partner, and their respective affiliates, subsidiaries, as well as the immediate family members (defined as parents, spouse, children, siblings and grandparents) and those living in the same household of each such employee, officer and director are not eligible to enter, and businesses owned by these individuals are not eligible to receive a prize. Sponsor makes the final determination as to what who is eligible to take part in the Promotion. By participating, each Participant agrees to abide by these Official Rules and by the decisions of Sponsor, which are final and binding in all respects.  3. HERE’S HOW IT WORKS AND HOW TO ENTER: On six (6) days  during the Promotion Period determined by T-Mobile in its sole discretion, T-Mobile will post a drawing announcement post to its @TMobile twitter account, using the hashtag #5Gsfor5G, and inviting entries for this Promotion (each post a “Sweepstakes Tweet”).  As detailed below, there will be five drawings for a prize following each Sweepstakes Tweet.  

 

 (a) Entry: To participate entrants must create a tweet from their account that tags @TMobile and uses the hashtags #5Gsfor5G & #Contest (“Contest Hashtags”) (each an “Entry”) between 10am PT and 2:59pm PT on the day of the appliable Sweepstakes Tweet. Standard Data rates apply. Entry will be disqualified if it cannot be viewed/accessed by Sponsor/judges for any reason, or if it does not contain the Contest Hashtags or tag @TMobile. It is recommended that your account is set to “public” in order to enter. If your account is set to “protected mode,” or “private,” your Entry may not be viewable by Sponsor/judges. You must also be following @T-Mobile on Twitter in order to receive contest communications from us, and to be eligible to win. Entry Tweets must comply with all terms and policies of the Twitter Platform. Any attempt at any other social media entry is void. Multi-part tweets and retweets are not allowed and will not be counted as an entry. Sponsor makes the final determination as to what Tweets are eligible to take part in the Sweepstakes.   (b) Participation Limit: Limit one Tweet per Sweepstakes Tweet, per person (i.e., 6 entries in total if you respond to each Sweepstakes Tweet). Entries in excess of the entry limit will be disqualified. Retweets or shared/forwarded posts will not be accepted.  The use of automated devices to participate in this Promotion is prohibited. Sponsor and its agents are not responsible for lost, late, damaged, misdirected, illegible or incomplete entries.  (c) You Promise You’ve Read These Rules and Release T-Mobile and its Prize Partners from Liability: By entering the Promotion, entrants warrant they have read and understand these Official Rules and agree to be bound by them and to release, discharge and hold harmless Sponsor, Prize Partner, and their respective parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, retailers, agencies and all of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively “Released Parties”) from any and all liability, claims, judgments, losses, injuries, demands, damages, actions and/or causes of actions, whether direct or indirect, which may be due to or arise out of participation in the Promotion. 4. ADDITIONAL TERMS: Sponsor may prohibit a Participant from participating in the Promotion if, in its sole discretion, it determines that said Participant is attempting to undermine the legitimate operation of the Promotion by cheating, hacking, deception or other unfair practices (including the use of automated quick entry programs) or intending to annoy, abuse, threaten or harass any other Participants or Sponsor or its agents, or if Participant has or has attempted to submit malicious code, .exe files or any file that contains malicious code. Each Entry must be manually key stroked by the individual Participant; automated and/or repetitive submissions of Entries will be disqualified.  Odds of receiving a prize depends on the time of response and the actual number of eligible Entries received.   

 

5. WINNERS: For 5 hours after each Sweepstakes Tweet (i.e., 11am PT, Noon PT, 1pm PT, 2pm PT, and 3pm PT), Prize Partner will conduct a random drawing from the eligible Entries received so far that day. Entries from a prior Sweepstakes Tweet will not be carried forward (for example, if you don’t win on the day that the first Sweepstakes Tweet is posted, you’ll need to submit an Entry after the new Sweepstakes Tweet is posted by @TMobile to be eligible for the drawings on that day).  The potential prize winner’s assessment will be under supervision of Sponsor, whose decisions are final and binding on all matters relating to the Sweepstakes. A Participant’s Twitter account must have the ability to receive direct messages or the Sponsor will be unable to notify a potential winner. The selected potential prize winner will be notified via direct message and announcement from Sponsor via Twitter within approximately 24 hours of each drawing. Subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules, the potential winners will be declared an official winner of the Sweepstakes (each a “Prize Winner”). If any selected potential winner does not respond to Sponsor within forty-eight (48) hours of being notified, is found to be ineligible, is not able to receive the Sponsor’s notification or cannot or does not comply with these Official Rules, such potential winner may be disqualified and Sponsor may  select an alternate potential winner from among all remaining eligible entries in its discretion. Maximum of one (1) prize per Participant during the Promotion.
